Since the early 1990s, NewYork-based artist Charles LeDray has become known for his miniaturised sculptures of hand-stitched clothing, carved human bone, and thimble-sized ceramics. Their intimate scale and materials poignantlyevoke allusions to childhood memory, gender and class stereotypes, and wonder in the everyday. This volume accompanies a mid-career survey exhibition organised by Jen Mergel for the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston.
